The four-letter prefix TDRU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with TAL International.
A complete container number combines the owner prefix, six-digit serial number, and check digit. The prefix identifies registered equipment ownership and does not always identify the carrier currently transporting the container.
Use the CargoEnter container validator to check the number structure before starting shipment tracking.

Who uses TDRU containers
TDRU is registered to TAL International. Leased or exchanged equipment can move with a different shipping line, so the prefix alone does not identify the carrier of a shipment.
